The fifteen-year-old boy who sang "Dock of the Bay" was fantastic, but as good as his voice is, I just can't see him getting that far -- he's a baby, for one! But talent-wise, he can SING. I wonder what he'll sound like in a few more years.
You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
sumi, thank you so much for linking that. It was a really interesting take.
I would LOVE to attend restaurant wars all-stars or when the celebrity chefs come to play.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Do Discovery Channel's Flying Wild Alaska and Nat. Geo.'s Alaska Wing Men count as non-fiction TV? Is anyone else watching them?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yes, they definitely count, but no, I'm not watching. Are they any good?

I can't decide. The scenery (when you can see it) is great, and both shows have had some nice bits about off-airport operations. Both have had some clumsy edits where they've shown the wrong plane in exterior shots. And both are...I don't know if "over-scripted" is the right term, but it's clear they are shooting the same story three or four different ways to get all the shots they are using -- they are not just tagging along on a bunch of flights and seeing what happens. It makes me wonder whether they are documenting things that happen, or just dramatizing and recreating pilots' tales. Probably some of both.

I just saw a commercial for a Rob & Russell Survivor rematch. I will totally watch that.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
hm, is there any way to do that without Russell?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
no shit.
I might watch the first episode of this season of Survivor, but I hate Russell more than any previous contestant of Survivor. Can I spend a THIRD fucking season with him?
Do I really need to put myself through that?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I hate Russell more than any previous contestant of Survivor.
More than Fairplay?
